Yeast ATP Synthase structure in presence of MgATP
Structural highlights
FunctionATP8_YEAST Mitochondrial membrane ATP synthase (F(1)F(0) ATP synthase or Complex V) produces ATP from ADP in the presence of a proton gradient across the membrane which is generated by electron transport complexes of the respiratory chain. F-type ATPases consist of two structural domains, F(1) - containing the extramembraneous catalytic core and F(0) - containing the membrane proton channel, linked together by a central stalk and a peripheral stalk. During catalysis, ATP synthesis in the catalytic domain of F(1) is coupled via a rotary mechanism of the central stalk subunits to proton translocation. Part of the complex F(0) domain. Minor subunit located with subunit a in the membrane (By similarity). Publication Abstract from PubMedMitochondrial adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthase uses the proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane to synthesize ATP. Structural and single molecule studies conducted mostly at neutral or basic pH have provided details of the reaction mechanism of ATP synthesis. However, pH of the mitochondrial matrix is slightly acidic during hypoxia and pH-dependent conformational changes in the ATP synthase have been reported. Here we use single-particle cryo-EM to analyze the conformational ensemble of the yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) ATP synthase at pH 6. Of the four conformations resolved in this study, three are reaction intermediates. In addition to canonical catalytic dwell and binding dwell structures, we identify two unique conformations with nearly identical positions of the central rotor but different catalytic site conformations. These structures provide new insights into the catalytic mechanism of the ATP synthase and highlight elastic coupling between the catalytic and proton translocating domains. Conformational ensemble of yeast ATP synthase at low pH reveals unique intermediates and plasticity in F(1)-F(o) coupling.,Sharma S, Luo M, Patel H, Mueller DM, Liao M Nat Struct Mol Biol. 2024 Apr;31(4):657-666. doi: 10.1038/s41594-024-01219-4. , Epub 2024 Feb 5.
